Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding refers to any form of bleeding that occurs in the gastrointestinal tract, which includes the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anus. Symptoms can range from vomiting blood, which may appear red or like coffee grounds, to black or tarry stools. Causes of GI bleeding can include ulcers, hemorrhoids, diverticulosis, inflammatory bowel disease, and tumors. Prompt medical evaluation is essential to identify the source of the bleeding and to initiate appropriate treatment.
